The hen is a cochin banty.
Don't worry folks...when the temps are warmer she has access to a pan of water.
I have the cage hanging about 2 feet off the ground. Several times today I when I was in the building, I would step inside the pen...and give the cage a push so it would swing.
She is still wanting to be a mother.
The main reason I am trying to get her out of the broodiness is because a hen can drop a lot of weight when setting. I have had hens die on the nest because they refuse to get off the nest to eat and drink.
She has been broody for close to 3 weeks... maybe longer.
It is time for her to stop!!
